LTD Commodities LLC, one of the country’s premier multichannel merchandisers, will kick of its 2014 seasonal hiring festivities with a number of recruiting events and job fairs across the western and northern suburbs of Chicago.

When hiring season concludes in November, LTD Commodities will bring approximately 1,000 full-time and part-time seasonal jobs to Aurora, the headquarters for its distribution center, Bannockburn, its corporate center, and Lincolnshire.

LTD annually welcomes and trains seasonal associates to assist with the increased volume of customer orders placed during the busy shopping season that coincides with the publication of its Harvest and Christmas catalogs.

Both new and former applicants are encouraged to apply, and many seasonal associates come back every year for this exciting season.

“We create an enjoyable atmosphere where all associates are valued and respected. That is why many seasonal staff members come back year after year,” said Rick Luciani, Vice President of Warehouse Operations in Aurora. “Our terrific staff in the warehouse help make seasonal associates truly feel like part of the LTD family.”

Through innovative programs such as web tutorials, e-Learning courses, and an exceptional in-house training program, associates can achieve exponential career development. In addition, this solid foundation of professional training empowers LTD associates to focus on the company’s premise: to provide fantastic products and deliver world-class customer service to an ever-increasing customer base.
